Hey! I am not sure I can meet your deadline as I am currently engaged with two other games. I’d prefer to see those completed before I commit to a new project. However, I would appreciate being considered. 

Although I have experience with localisations across various genres, my experience with romance is limited (1 visual novel about 2 men falling in love). Writing male characters is challenging for me but I gladly take any chance to practice and improve.
Could you clarify how you interpret ‘romance’? If your novel interprets romance more physically than emotionally, I might not be the best fit for you. In general, I confess that I’d like to give it a go and see how it progresses rather than fully committing at this stage.  

My pair is en-de. 
If it doesn't click for either of us, I am available for proofreading at any time.

I will keep this one in mind and give it more thoughts

Hello, thank you for your interest!

I completely understand wanting to finish your ongoing projects first, I set a deadline because it would be nice to have as many languages as possible before the jam ends, but I'd still like to translate the full game anyway, so I'm accepting all kinds of help. If men are challenging for you, I wonder if translating a game full of women will be easier?

I guess I didn't specify it in my game's page, but it will be fully SFW. It's about accepting and allowing yourself to fall in love, meaning nothing physical will be described (might be implied in the full game, though, but I'm not sure yet. What's important is that there's nothing of the sort in the demo).

Let me know when you're done with the other games, I'd love to work with you if I haven't found anyone else in the meantime!

Thank you for the detailed feedback! I’m super happy that you’re interested despite my concerns. I’ve read a bit more into your devlog and realized that men won’t be a problem for me in this case. My fear is always that I make a man too feminine in a romantic situation, or at least think that I make him too soft. When writing women, I have no worries! :) In an early devlog, I saw that you’re at around 7k words so far, if that stays roughly the same, I’m very confident that I can finish it by the end of November or maybe earlier. Your positive feedback has motivated me a lot to complete one of the other games almost entirely, so everything could go much faster than expected! In what format do you write your texts, or what software would I need to get? I’m asking because I was asked last week to work with a very weird translation tool that hindered me more than helped me. Otherwise, I’m very easy-going and can handle almost any software with a bit of patience, but if I have to buy something (software), I’d have to plan ahead ^^

As I've said in my post, the script is around (or a little over) 11k words. 

I'm not using any specific software and I surely won't ask you to buy anything! You will work on a google sheets file, easy to access and edit. 

Honestly, if you think you can translate the demo at least by the end of the year, then I can already send you the translation sheet.

Just send me a friend request on discord (preferably) or an email when you're available and I'll give you the link ^^
